I just wanted to know if the Evo VIII cam gears would fit the IX? and also you cant "mix and match" camshafts for ex: Since the exhaust cam from an VIII fits the IX..I can use a 272 that I have for the exhaust side and buy a GSC 280 intake cam and use them toghter?

yes, the exhaust cam of the 8 will fit the 9. if you have mail in flash (or will not get custom tuned) you might want to think about tuning with mix match cams...

I dont know the answer, but I could have sworn he was asking about cam gears, not cams.

Mechanically it will fit the Ex cam GEAR of the IX. I take it that you want one for adjustability.
You may be the first one to try it. Post up your finding when you do

Get the Cosworth MIVEC EVO 9 cams. Cam gears are not necessary.

Thanx guys, I already have 272's and I have Cam Gears for my Evo VIII that I just bought, but right before I was going to install it, I decided I wanted to sell the VIII and get a IX before they are all gone! I was trying to sell them but if no one wanted the cam gears I was just seeing if I could put the on the IX!
